No Dinner Break

Webjoker

Nível 4 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

The original plan was to play 10 levels today with a break after Level 6. Instead, the tournament organization has just decided to play eight levels today with no dinner break. The (late) registration and time to reenter when busted remain the same. Instead of till the start of Day 2, though, registration is now open until the start of the third level on Day 2.
